Hello Meenu,

You can rename it using the function module EDI_PATH_CREATE_CLIENT_DOCNUM.

Refer to step 6 in the below link, it explains you how to override the default name and provide custom name.

Hi Meenu,

If none of the standard function module matches your requirement, You can also create custom function module by copying the standard FM. Implement the logic.

Add the created FM name in the table EDIFM.

Hello Meenu,

In short you can goto transaction WE21. Click on the XML file port which you are working on.

In the tab Outbound file ---> place your cursor on field Outbound file and press F1 for documentation.

Which gives you a pop up with File name for outbound data. Read the documentation clearly for creating the file name.
